Congress MP and Commonwealth Games (CWG) organising committee (OC) Chairman Suresh Kalmadi has now found another critic of his style of functioning within the party.

After former Union sports minister and Rajya Sabha Member Mani Shankar Aiyar repeatedly slamming the Kalmadi-led OC, now Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh has opened a new front against the 2010 Games' chief organiser.

The firebrand Congress leader wants Kalmadi to resign "on moral grounds". Without sounding too harsh on the CWG OC chief, Singh said that he should own up to the responsibility.

"The Central Vigilance Commission has handed over a case to the CBI. Prima facie, if there is indeed a case against Suresh Kalmadi then he should resign on moral grounds," Singh insisted.

He reiterated that if there is a prima facie case against Kalmadi, then to step down is the only logical thing to do. He also urged the media to show restraint adding that it was everybody's responsibility now to organise the Games successfully.
